OBAMA: These Are The 17 Things We Can Do To Grow The Economy

The White House has released the full economic blueprint that
President Barack Obama will lay out in his State Of The Union
speech Tuesday night.

The blueprint includes 17 proposals for public investment in
manufacturing, education, clean energy, and infrastructure, which
Obama argues will result in economic growth and strengthen the
middle class.

Those proposals include:

Bringing good manufacturing jobs back to America, by:

Investing $1 billion investment in 15 Manufacturing
Innovation Institutes, public-private partnerships between
federal agencies, private businesses, universities, and
community colleges that will help develop manufacturing
technologies and capabilities. Obama is creating three of
these by executive order.

Ending tax breaks for companies that outsource jobs
overseas, and implementing an "offshoring tax" that would set
a minimum tax on overseas earnings.
